White Fillings

An increasingly popular alternative to silver amalgam fillings are composite white fillings. Unlike amalgam fillings, composite fillings are virtually invisible and our team at Main Street Dental can shade them according to the color of your teeth to create a perfect match, giving you a beautiful, white smile!

Benefits of Composite White Fillings

Created to match your tooth to ensure a natural look and feel

Because composite fillings can be created in smaller preparations, less of your tooth structure is lost and less drilling is needed

The material is made from acrylic and glass particles, containing no mercury or other metals

Provides support to remaining tooth structure, and insulates against temperature changes

The Filling Process

First, the targeted tooth is prepared to remove decay

Next, a bonding agent is applied to the prepared tooth

The composite material is placed and molded to your tooth structure

The material is hardened by focusing intense light rays on it for about a minute

The filling is now complete and you have a bright, natural-looking new tooth!

Your filling brightness can be maintained by simply practicing good oral hygiene and avoiding staining food and drinks such as coffee, soda, tea, etc. For more information on composite white fillings or to schedule an appointment, call your Plymouth dentist at 603-536-4009 and let us rejuvenate your smile!
